Chapter 210: Catching the Thief!
Translator: 549690339
Fantasy Achievement was a brand new type of achievement, but Ji Ruo wasn’t sure what the trigger method was.
However, this did not affect the power of the Fantasy Martial Art, Indestructible Diamond Divine Art.
Different from ordinary martial arts, the Indestructible Diamond Divine Art was not divided into levels such as Elementary Level or Advanced Level.
There were four levels to this fantasy martial art, namely, Vajra Qi Refining, Vajra Body Forging, Vajra Axe Wielding, and Vajra Mountain Pushing.
The first level was Ji Ruo’s current level-Vajra Qi Cultivation.
It was different from the Qi cultivation that Ji Ruo understood. The main thing was to cultivate protective qi.
“Bang bang.”
Ji Ruo knocked on his chest, making a dull sound similar to knocking on metal.
He nodded with satisfaction.”Not bad! He had a hard body technique now. When he had the chance, he would teach this divine technique to the class monitor.”
Then, Ji Ruo got into position again and asked,”Rosie, what did your sister tell you in your dreams?”
With the Indestructible Diamond Divine Art protecting his body, Ji Ruo didn’t really care about Luo Qian’s sister who could ‘show her spirit’.
“Sister said…”
Rosie recalled for a moment and said with uncertainty, I think it’s to say that we should find time to worship her more and let her show more of her power. She also wants a red scarf…
As everyone knew, it was difficult to recall the details of a dream after waking up.
Although Luo Qian wasn’t dreaming normally, if she had come out to tell Ji Ruo after the white cat had finished his instructions, she would have remembered it clearly.
However, she had chatted with the white cat for a long time after that. As a result, her memory of the beginning of the dream was a little blurry…
“Bless her more?” Ji Ruo smiled.” Alright. I didn’t get a good look at the cat’s soul last time.” Yes, but we have to catch the thief first. Luo Qian, Uncle Chen MO, and the little thing, don’t talk anymore. It’s getting dark. Let’s see if the thief will come tonight…”
Night fell.
In the Eight Treasures Stronghold.
In the center of the village were five golden statues of the Martial Saint. Each statue had a particularly ferocious expression.
However, this did not affect the respect people had for these holy images.
Dozens of martial artists patrolled around the village. Their movements were crisscrossed, but strangely, they were not in a mess.
A martial artist glanced at the holy statue in the center of the stockade and muttered, “”Strange, how did those three holy statues get lost? The holy statue had the effect of suppressing demons. If a demon had killed a human, it should not be able to get close to the holy statue.
As for the demons who had never killed humans, they knew that we were not to be trifled with, so they would not come to provoke us. Furthermore, a holy statue weighed thousands of pounds…Weird, weird, weird. Was it really a supernatural event?”
“Don’t be so paranoid.” The warrior beside him glanced at him and said,’”‘The holy statue is not omnipotent. We have to patrol well tonight. Now, the Eight
Treasures Stronghold can be renamed as the Five Treasures Stronghold. If the Five Treasures Stronghold becomes the Four Treasures Stronghold after tonight, how are we going to explain to the villagers?”
Previously, the Eight Treasures Stronghold had a total of eight Martial Saint statues, and that was how the Eight Treasures Stronghold got its name. The eight holy statues were the treasures of the Eight Treasures Stronghold.
Now, three holy statues had been stolen.
“Hehe, at most, I’ll take over! Moreover, with our current configuration, even a mosquito won’t be able to fly in. Don’t worry!”
“Don’t be too sure.”
1 AM.
In a certain corner of the village, none of the warriors noticed that there was a shadow surging like water.
In the shadows, there were two humanoid creatures talking.
“Jiggurgling (Their patrols are getting stronger and stronger…)”
A deep voice sounded. The voice was covered by the shadow and could not be transmitted out.
“Tsk tsk tsk (Cali, what do we do now? Are we still stealing tonight?)
The creature called Kali thought for a moment and said,””Jiggurgling (Forget it, with this kind of defense, even if we have the blessing of the gods, it will be difficult for us to retreat unscathed…)”
“What about the mission that Lord God gave us?)
” Jeez!” Kali said seriously.” Josie, we are bandits, not warriors. Do you expect us to take away a statue that weighs thousands of pounds under the siege of dozens of black-haired Inhumans?”)
Josh scratched his head.
Kali said,”Jiggurgling.(Tonight, just take it that we’re here to scout the area. They can’t keep patrolling like this all the time. There will be times when they’ll get tired.)
We are thieves, we need to be patient.”
“Ji (You’re right.)”
Then, the shadow started to move in the darkness and ‘flowed’ out of the Eight Treasures Stockade.
During the entire process, not a single martial artist discovered it.
Kali and Josie came to the forest outside the village.
“Ji…Lu? Let’s go back first… Eh? What’s that?”
Before Kali could finish, he suddenly saw a golden statue standing not far away.
The statue took a bow stance and pressed down with one hand in the shape of a claw. It seemed to be suppressing something, but there was nothing under the claw.
He raised his other hand high up into the sky. There seemed to be a small golden object in his palm. He was too far away, so he didn’t know what it was.
The golden statue had a ferocious expression, and a golden cat was lying on its head. It was motionless, as if it was part of the statue.
Moonlight shone on the golden statue, making it seem like it was emitting a faint glow. It was beautiful.
“What are you talking about?” Josh said in confusion. (It seems that the Lord God asked us to steal the statue, but… Was there a statue here yesterday? Moreover, why was this statue so…Small?”
A regular holy statue was about five meters tall. The higher the realm of a warrior when they were alive, the more burly their body would be after transforming into a holy statue.
For example, an Aureate Body realm martial artist like Gu Xingzhou, who had opened up 72 Star Whirlpools, could even reach dozens of meters tall after turning into a saint statue!
Of course, as time passed, the remnant martial will on the holy statue would be worn away by time and wind, and the holy statue would become smaller and smaller.
The statue that Ji Ruo had seen earlier was a severely damaged statue.
At this moment, the one that Kali and Josie were looking at was only two meters tall, including the arm that was raised high. That was why they found it strange.
“Chirp! (Indeed.)” Kali nodded seriously. (It might be a trap. Be careful.))
Josie also knew that this situation was abnormal. Together with Kali, they controlled the shadows to carefully patrol the 50-meter radius around the statue.
A moment later.
They returned to their original positions.
“Tsk tsk.There was no ambush?”
“Jiggurgling? (Could it be that there was something wrong with the statue?) Kali thought for a moment, then she quietly stretched out her arm and aimed at the motionless statue not far away.
A sleeve arrow shot out and hit the chest of the statue.
“Clang!”
The sound of metal clashing rang out, and sparks flew in all directions.
“Ji ji ji ji. (It looks like a real statue…)”
“Tsk tsk (Try again.)”
“Ji. (Okay.)”
Kali nodded and shot another sleeve arrow.
This time, he aimed at the thing that the statue was dragging.
“Tsk!
A strange collision sound was heard, and the small golden object flew backward and rolled into the grass.
Cali and Josie waited for another half an hour-what Thieves never lacked was patience!
“Grunt. (It’s really a statue. Let’s go, carry it back and report!))
“Ji! (Okay!)”
They finally took action.
The shadow advanced slowly.
The distance of 50 meters took him nearly six minutes.
They finally arrived at the foot of the statue.
Through the shadows, Josie looked at the little thing that had been shot down.
It was a lifelike miniature statue. It was only the size of a palm and was exquisitely crafted.
Kali had an idea. She raised her hand and reached out from the shadow to pick up the small statue and put it in her pocket.”Grunt. (This might be a golden statue made by the black-haired mutant. The Lord God definitely doesn’t want this. Let’s take it back and sell it. We’ll split the money equally.)
It just smells a little strange…
“Ji. (Alright, let’s do that.)”
Then, the shadow surged violently and gradually condensed into two human figures in front of the statue.
“Tsk tsk. (This statue looks so young.) “Josie said.
Kali nodded. (Indeed.)”
“Wow.” (I think so too.)”
The two of them nodded subconsciously, then froze.
The statue suddenly grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.””Grunt! (You are patient. What kind of bird language are you talking about? It’s quite interesting…Well, since it’s our first meeting, I’ll give you a Lightning Palm!
You’re welcome! ”
The statue, Ji Ruo, suddenly moved.
A pair of gloves that were as thin as cicada’s wings had been worn on his hands. There was also a pair of half-finger gloves that looked unremarkable.
Ji Ruo rubbed his palms together, and lightning flashed between his palms. He struck the chests of the two thieves. The Iron Palm was more powerful, but he wanted to catch them alive!
Josh was caught off guard and was struck by the lightning. He instantly fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth and trembling all over.
Kali reacted faster and stepped back to avoid Ji Ruo’s Lightning Palm.
“Your reaction is quite fast.” As Ji Ruo spoke, his second palm struck down fiercely.
“Chirp! (Damn it!)”
Kali cursed in his heart and immediately turned into a shadow. His body was erratic and the lightning directly penetrated the shadow of Kali’s incarnation without causing any damage.
The shadow didn’t stop and fled quickly. He didn’t plan to care about his teammates.
Ji Ruo was slightly stunned. He used Shadow Steps to catch up with the shadow in an instant.
His hands turned into claws and he clawed fiercely!
The corner of Ka Li’s mouth curled up. He knew that Ji Ruo couldn’t catch him! “What are you laughing at?”
“You think I can’t catch you?” Ji Ruo laughed.”
All ten of his fingers suddenly exerted force!
The Absolute Rubbing Half-Finger Glove could grab anything it wanted with the wearer’s mind!
Ji Ruo caught it!
Kali was shocked. This was a divine spell bestowed by the gods!
His divine spell could ignore the collision of units and turn him into a ‘ghost’ state! How could he have been caught!
Ji Ruo didn’t intend to answer him. After grabbing the shadow with his own hands, he shouted at the top of his voice,””Catch the thief! Catch the thief!”
The mountain birds in the forest flew away in fright, and the entire Eight Treasures Stronghold was alarmed.
